sandy's having a real, local impact on ohio residents' lives. but sandy's march through ohio also has a national impact because ohio, of course, is the most crucial of all the swing states. ohio, for example, is big on early voting. they camp out for it there. as sandy approached, ohio counties reported even heavier than usual early voting, with people rushing to cast their ballots ahead of the storm. lots of things are amazing about ohio's politics, but frankly, what i find most amazing in ohio this year is the way the romney campaign is choosing to close out their campaign there. remember when mr. romney campaigned on that flat-out lie that president obama's getting rid of a work requirement for welfare, even though president obama did no such thing? well, now mr. romney is back with a new ad in ohio with that same old lie about welfare. they brought it back for the end of the campaign. romney campaign sent senator norm coleman from minnesota to ohio to tell voters there that mitt romney had no intention of overturning roe versus wade even tho
